An RTX 4090, OLED display, and $500 off: Best Buy’s clearance deal on the Asus Zephyrus G16 is tempting

Best Buy’s Presidents’ Day sale is still live, and it includes what’s easily one of the best deals on a high-end RTX 4090 gaming laptop today in the form of this Asus ROG Zephyrus G16 for just $2,799 (was $3,299).

A massive $500 discount brings this one down into a much more reasonable price bracket, although admittedly, this is still a very expensive machine. For a reasonable sum, you’ll get yourself not only that high-end RTX 4090 graphics card but also an Intel Core Ultra 9 chipset, 32GB of RAM, and a stunning OLED display for good measure. Specs like these are rarely seen under $3,000 so I definitely think this one is worth a look.

While gaming laptops with the RTX 4090 will soon be superseded by those with an RTX 5090, I’d still say this G16 is a great option. The RTX 4090 doesn’t get access to some of the latest graphical tech like Multi-Frame Generation, but it’s still plenty powerful enough to max out the graphical settings on nearly every game right now. This machine also carries that blazingly quick 240Hz 1600p OLED display so that RTX 4090 can really flex its muscles on a gorgeous monitor, too.

Another really great option for an RTX 4090 clearance deal is the Alienware x16 R2 that I’ve attached just below. This machine is slightly cheaper than the Asus and comes with an incredibly quick 480Hz 1200p display – which, some would say, could even be overkill. Personally, I’m partial to the overall design and OLED display on the Asus G16 but this x16 is easily still one of the best gaming laptop deals on the market right now.
